About me
I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember. Growing up, we always had dogs — Chocolate Labradors — and I’ve always loved their loyal, quirky and sometimes completely unpredictable personalities!
​
After working in several different industries, I decided it was time to follow my passion and train as a professional dog groomer, which led me to createÂ
Jess’ Suds & Smiles Dog Grooming.

- Jess
Before grooming, I worked for the London Ambulance Service and as an Emergency Medical Technician for a local prison. These roles taught me patience, compassion and how to remain calm in stressful situations — skills that I now bring into the salon every day.
My Career Before Grooming
My home salon is based in Moulsecoomb, Brighton and provides a quiet, comfortable environment where dogs can settle and feel at ease. My aim is to make grooming as positive and stress-free as possible —
a real home-from-home experience.
My Home Salon
What makes
me different?
No Cage Dryers
I use kind , gentle drying methods so you dog stays calm, comfortable and stress-free.
No Rushing
Every groom is done at the dog's pace, with patience, care and understanding.
A quiet, reassuring experience where your dog receives my full attention.
Calm, One-to-One Care
Because every dog deserves
patience, kindness and understanding.
A little about me
When I'm not grooming, you'll usually
find me building Lego.
I love spending time with my family.
I can never resist a good
cup of Yorkshire Tea.
I'm a huge animal lover and
have always been fascinated
by animal behaviour. Which is one of the reasons I love getting
to know each dog's invidual
personality.
I'm naturally quite calm and
patient and there's nothing
I enjoy more than seeing a
nervous or unsure dog gradually begin to relax andÂ
fell comfortable with me.
